Doesn't matter if the reward is 1hp. People will do bad things to get it AND complain that they have to "jump through hoops" to be competitive. Our particular brand of power gamers have especially bad OCD.

I agree. X number of PKs before level X is not the right way to do it. Encourages multi-killing.

I agree.
